Art Analysis
A fluid reimagining of the Columbus city horizon
Tompsett uses watercolor painting techniques to soften the hard lines of the Columbus cityscape. The buildings are recognizable yet abstracted, their silhouettes bleeding into one another to create a sense of depth and motion. Tonal variations suggest the shifting light of a city at rest, where shadows and highlights merge into a singular, cohesive horizon.

By stripping away the clutter of the street level, the focus remains on the iconic shapes of the skyline, rendered with a creative freedom that feels both personal and expansive.
